Great Lakes Clinical Trials is currently enrolling participants for a research study of an investigational medication for the treatment of moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa.

What is HS?

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a long-term skin condition that features small, painful lumps under the skin. They typically develop where the skin rubs together, such as the armpits, the groin, between the buttocks and under the breasts. The lumps may break open and smell or cause tunnels under the skin.
